Wings.io is a 2015 Action game developed by Wingsio.[1] Users play as a plane and try to kill other planes in order to get up to the top of the leaderboard.[3] The game is similar to Agar.io and Slither.io.

Gameplay

Players play as small fighter plane which follows the mouse, flying around a limited 2D space over water. Players have limited health. Players can briefly exit the sides of the playing area, but will be destroyed for "abandoning the fight" if they remain outside the bounds for too long. Travelling above the top of the area will cause the plane to stall, and going underwater will incur a health penalty.[4] Players running out of health will be destroyed, players with very little health will suffer engine failure and plummet to the water.

The game is a free-for-all dogfight, with arenas of roughly 20 players in each. Players score points through primarily through destroying others, but also collecting suspended yellow orbs dotted throughout the playing area, and collecting power ups.[3][4] Players lose half of their points upon death, but can respawn quickly. Each arena has a leaderboard, and the player in first place is designated as the "King", and will be granted double health. There is no way to definitively "win" the game, gameplay continues indefinitely.

Power ups are dropped from the top of the playing area. Collecting a power up replaces the default machine gun with limited ammunition for a more powerful weapon. These weapons are missiles, a 3-shot spread attack, a railgun, a "punch" attack, bombs, and a more rare laser "superweapon". A healing drop can also be collected, and players will heal slightly upon killing another player.

The game encourages "revenge" attacks by highlighting the position of the opponent which last killed the player. The king's location is similarly highlighted.

Players can customise the colours of their plane. Also, some choices of player name (such as the name of some countries) will add a flag that trails behind the plane.

Development

The game is fully released.[5]
